reports by City staf f, comments by the owner and other interested

7 . The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this
• property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other
property in this zoning district: that granting the variances
would not adversely effect traffic conditions, light, air nor
pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would
not merely serve as a convenience to the owner, but is necessary to
alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to
preserve a substantial property right of the owner; and would be
in keeping with the spirit and intent of the zoning code and
comprehensive plan of the City.

variances to Sections 10. 24 and 10.22 and 10.03 to permit the
